Perhaps the first thing which brought our boys to a halt, and a long, long look around them, was the age of the place. Apparently it hasâthe statement is hardly exaggeratedâalways been there. As a matter of historical fact it has been there for more than a thousand years. On hearing that, the American boys always gasped. They were used to the conception of the great age of "historical" spots, by which they meant cities in which great events have occurredâParis, Rome, Stratford-on-Avon, Granada. But that an inconsiderable settlement of a thousand inhabitants, where nothing in particular ever happened beyond the birth, life, and death of its people, should have kept its identity through a thousand years gave them, so they said, "a queer feeling."

"[...] They sank into a reverie, smiling to themselves. "How the fountains shone in the sun, that day," she murmured; "the spray they cast on us was all tiny opals and diamonds." "You're sure you aren't going to be sorry to go back to America to live, to leave all that?" asked the man. "I get anxious about that sometimes. It seems an awful jump to go away from such beautiful historic things, back to a narrow little mountain town." "I'd like to know what right you have to call it narrow, when you've never even seen it," she returned.[...]".
